The Volkswagen Kübelwagen is a rugged light military vehicle engineered by Ferdinand Porsche at Volkswagen during World War II specifically designed to meet the tactical needs of the German armed forces. Primarily based on the reliable design of the iconic Volkswagen Beetle, the Kübelwagen originated as the Type 62 but gained widespread recognition within the company as the Type 82. The rolling chassis and essential mechanical components of this formidable vehicle were meticulously crafted in Stadt des KdF-Wagens, while its sleek body was meticulously manufactured by Ambi Budd Presswerke, a pioneering German firm with American ties, situated in Berlin. The Germans regarded the Kübelwagen as their ultimate multipurpose all-terrain military companion, paralleling the utility and versatility of the famous jeep, an invaluable asset to Allied forces during wartime.
